Bread Pudding Apple Pie
Ingredients:
– 6 cups cubed day-old bread
– 2 large apples, peeled and diced
– 1/2 cup raisins
– 1/2 cup chopped pecans
– 4 eggs
– 2 cups whole milk
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– Vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed bread, diced apples, raisins, and chopped pecans. Spread this mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
3. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
4. Pour the egg mixture over the bread and apples in the baking dish. Press down lightly to ensure all the bread is soaked in the liquid.
5. Let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the liquid.
6. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
7. Remove the Bread Pudding Apple Pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
8. Serve warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy the delicious blend of flavors and textures in every bite!
